A few snow showers continued through last night but there wasn't any great addition to the depth since last report. This morning there are further showers with light snow falling currently. All lifts in Hanazono have opened today opening up heaps more terrain including some of the best off-piste areas on the mountain. Pretty much all lifts around the resorts are now open with the exception of the very top lifts. Without doubt Niseko has the largest amount of terrain open in Japan right now. So for those of us lucky enough to be here get out there and enjoy that powder!
